Q1. Which of the following is the first major coal-based thermal power plant in Rajasthan? Choose the most appropriate answer.
A Chhabra Power Plant
B Kota Thermal Power Plant Correct
C Suratgarh Power Plant
D Kalisindh Thermal Power Plant
Explanation
Kota Thermal Power Plant is treated as Rajasthan's first major coal-based thermal power station, so it fits the phrase used in the question. Chhabra Power Plant and Kalisindh Thermal Power Plant are later coal-based projects in the state. Suratgarh Power Plant is also an important thermal power station, but it was not the first major coal-based plant in Rajasthan. The official key therefore points to Kota Thermal Power Plant, not to the later capacity additions at Chhabra, Suratgarh, or Kalisindh.
